So just to clarify/recap for those who haven't read through the entire thread (you should though):
The flex fuel sensor which goes in your fuel line just before the fuel rail, sends a signal to this box, which in turn sends a signal to the ecu to change maps to the correct ethanol content - like a dual map setup but with automatic electronic switches instead of manual switches?
That's mad smart, Bill. Good stuff
Was just a little cloudy on how it all works from the chip to the ecu, but that makes a lot of sense now. clever using spare o2 imput too!
yeah, no reason it wouldnt.Will this work on automatics?
You wasted jack??
I'd say shame on you, but it was for a good cause.
Yeah, I was under the impression the sensor usually went on the return line after the fuel rail.
Out of curiosity, what happens with the interpolation if the sensor reads greater than 85% but you only have an e85 tune? or an e70 tune for that matter?
Bill Would this pcb work or need to work with an after market ecu? I have a Haltec sprit 500 installed
You probably wouldn't need that PCB if your Haltech had a spare digital input. Seems like your biggest hurdle is making sure your tuner knows how to activate E85 FlexFuel in that ECU and tune the car.
- The way around this: most Mitsubishi's have a spare analog-to-digital inputs (ie an input that can read a voltage rather than a certain signal). This input in our case is the secondary o2 sensor.
